AHH! - Oh hi! You startled me!

I must have lost track of time, I was just here uhhh, preparing for today's deal and uhh... oh these? These are for Dizz- I mean Fred. Yeah, Fred.

Oh no, I wasn't eating them - of course not! I told myself when I was at the new chocolate tasting bar that these were for someone else, like Fred. Not for me to eat. Nope!

So today we're featuring Berroco Dark Chocolatestone Tweed and... ohh umm, I meant to say - alright I have a secret dark chocolate problem! The darker the better, oh I love the bittersweet goodness.

Ok I'm just going to go over here and give these delicious truffles to Fred. I'm posititive he's inside that janitor's closet over there. I'll... be right back.
